Sucks for him, he's losing out on alot of money. It's not likely to change his views or votes when it comes to bills either. He's just losing out on alot of money because some politicians think its a conflict of interest...

Kind of goes along w/ what he said at the Arnold Classic this last year.

**Tock** · 07-17-2005, 11:26 AM

Well, it is a conflict of interest. If he's got to weigh in, officially, on public matters, he ought not have private financial interests in those matters. Sorta like it would be inappropriate for Bush or Cheney to have lots of stock in the Halliburton Corporation, and then influence Congress to steer military contracts to them . . .

guess he really didnt love the sport like he claimed he is stabbing the sport inthe back tat maid him who he is today

**nsa** · 07-18-2005, 07:06 PM

I would hardly call it stabbing the sport in the back. He was only editing 2 magazines, he still promotes the sport and fitness, as well as he still has the Arnold Classic...

He didn't disown the mags, he just resigned from his position. He did not disrespect the mags or put them down. What would you do in his position? What else could he have done? Step down from his position are Governor and let the people of California down, to be editter of 2 bodybuilding magazines?

Its a good thing that Neither bush Or Cheney had NOTHING to do with Haliburton. its been proven. Take your liberal sarcasm elsewhere.

and if you were just making fun of the lbierals who use that arguement, then I apologize, they sure are stupid.

**dr.shred** · 07-20-2005, 08:03 AM

thats understandable though, it must be hard to write for two mags while being a governor.

**IRONBULL05** · 07-24-2005, 10:40 AM

Arnold didn't disrespect the mag's.He just stepped out of the picture to shut the other politicians mouth's about the conflict of interests.Remember,every other politician hates the fact that a former B.B.and steroid user is doing a better job than them.They were also against Jesse Ventura becoming Gov,and I think he did a great job as well.
Everyone just wants to hurt everyone else,especially when they have been involved in our sport.It makes headlines now

**bigcity** · 07-28-2005, 09:44 AM

Doesnt matter to me, I dont read thoose garbage mags

**Gorgoroth_** · 08-01-2005, 11:58 AM

Other govenors have had their own little side projects. I think people are just trying to make crap hard for arnold. Arnold has been locked in a battle with other government peeps. lately in california. Apparently the government wants to ban all forms of supplements , not just pro hormones. Arnold has been trying to prevent this from happening.

**collar** · 08-04-2005, 02:52 AM

1 he doesnt need the money
2 he didnt back stab the sport
his taking his governor job real serouis and thats how it really should be
so good luck to him........

**rsmihula** · 08-04-2005, 09:56 AM

He had no choice he had to, and it dosen't matter Arnold will always be the man on top!

Damn dude I cant even believe you said that...you know they want to make it illegal in California for high school students to use supplements right? He wrote a letter to whomever saying that he would never sign it and they said well its a conflict of interest since you write for so-and-so, so he stepped down from the mags so his point of view can count as far as banning supps. Im pretty sure this is how the story goes.

So suck a nigga's dick or somethin...

Sorry i dont really mean that i just think its funny to say.
